Door handles usually aren’t something to write about. They are supposed to be purely bits on a door that should always,
as a rule, be high on function than on form. That being said, the hardware bit
also helps designers and decorators establish a theme for a room through these
elements which of course makes them incredibly tough to design. So far, we have
seen the more ornate door handle and door knobs rule the roost in the segment
since anything even slightly modern ends up looking to damn plain.
But we suppose the good folks working for the noted Swiss
architecture office Studioforma Associated Architects see the world through a
slightly different lens than us average people as they seem to have found a way
to make the good old door handle look exciting yet totally minimalist at the
same time.
Evocative, structurally appeal and something of a minimalist
modern icon, the Outline Door Handle by Studioforma comes in a timeless brushed
stainless steel construction.
With a transparent hollow form, cubic profile and
slim lines, the everyday doorknob is the epitome of the kind of precision and
perfection that one has come to expect of the design studio. Maintaining the
firm’s high standards as well as its contemporary take on all things design, architecture
and luxury, the door handle uses the shape of a simple cube as its starting point.
The lightweight door handle was designed to provide a clean
look to the door that it is fitted on with its understated geometrical design
evoking a theme of luxurious handicrafts. Thanks to its sleek lines, the Outline
Door Handle can be used on both traditional wooden doors as well as ultra
modern glass ones as the lines of the door handle is more than enough to depict
the minimalist theme.
